Philadelphia lost only twice during the regular season and both of those losses were to New Jersey...Philadelphia jumped out to a 28-0 lead and never looked back...the game was played at Franklin Field because the Phillies were scheduled in Veterans Stadium...both teams dressed at the Vet because the locker rooms were too small at Franklin...the teams then walked a block to Franklin Field...New Jersey running back Herschel Walker said it reminded him of high school.
